    Wheels/Arches/Tyres
    -Bilberry wheel cleaner
    -Tardis
    -arches and tyres cleaned with Megs Super Degreaser

    Wash/Clay
    -foamed with citrus degreaser
    -washed with Megs shampoo Plus and lambswool washmitt
    -clayed with Sonus Green

    All machining was done with Menz Power Finish on a Polishing Pad. This removed all the swirls but did leave the deeper scratches which will be removed in few months time when in for full correction:thumb:

    Well done there Jayplay, those 50/50 pictures look great.

    Awesome detail and car but why in the world would they take off those beautiful CSL wheels and put on those hideous ones. I guess maybe they needed some extra cash haha.

    Those Volk wheels are some of the lightest wheels on the market (probably the reason for the change-out). Brakes have been upgraded too, by the looks of it.

    Agree that the OEM CSL wheels are nice - some people like to personalize a bit though. At least there's a nod toward performance (not like heavy 20 inchers slapped on there).

    Interesting, guess it's not all about looks. I have always wondered how my car would perform if I put some light wheels on it.
